January 5th, 2013 we got WBA Bantamweight champion Janeth Perez defending her belt against Irma Garcia. Perez is undefeated at 16-0-2 while Garcia is 5-0-1. Perez, nicknamed “Cuisilla” is trained by Oscar “Chololo” Larios and has been a pro since 2008. Garcia has been a pro since 2010 and has had only five fights. It appears that she warrants this title shot after defeating the vastly more experienced Laura Serrano over eight rounds last September.

The only available footage on Garcia is her debut and her last match against Serrano. She has improved dramatically since her debut but still remains a light hitting southpaw. Her stance may trouble Perez for a round or two but the pressure and volume punching of Cuisilla should rule the night once again.
